Tbh I love wireless gear, but in general I don't mind it being wired either. It's just that I'm kinda messy, so with all my wired stuff my desk can get cluttered a bit. But... that's something I need to work on lol.
Im on xbox one and have three wired controllers. No worry about batteries or in game disconnections, but im in front of my tv in a man cave, and it makes sense.
@@KindOldRaven only wireless thing i have in my setup is the G502 Lightspeed, I was pretty skeptical about getting a wireless mouse but Logitech just do such a good job with wireless peripherals. Other than that I'm just like you lmao my cable management is top tier dogshit
I have this controller. Good pad. Shame no one mentions the nuances of this controller. Some things you may be interested in. -firmware update required out of the box (via pc/Windows) - is larger than the xbox controller. - the sticks are slightly taller then xbox controller. - the head of the stick is slightly larger in diameter (KontrolFreek difficult to get on straight, my rigtt stick freek are in the dome topper because it fits easier) - the lower rear buttons are in a nice position fit middle finger. - the upper rear buttons not as natural to press (I only use two of the four so doesn't bother me) - the dpad is slightly larger than xbox controller - the long stroke of the triggers is shorter that the xbox elite 2. - the triggers have a very hard bump stop, even without hair trigger on - app can remap, adjust rumble, stick sensitivity curve and inner/outer deadzone. Pro: good for larger hands Con: not as good for small hands Pro: the headphone volume output goes crazy loud compared to xbox controller. Con: no chat/game mix button on controller so this audio setting must be done in xbox guide menu. **CON: the mic signal is running just as hot, it's got a crazy amount of gain on it. So your mic will be twice a sensitive than with regular controller. It will pick up everything in your room and the party chat channel almost constantly be broadcasting. Even when your silent. * this led me to buy a wirless headset (I know but this pad is wired right? Well I don't mind because I sit close and wirless head set has multiple uses) but seriously the controller audio has too much gain..... Maybe firmware future fix? Pro: you can custom stick input sensitivity. Via the app each stick has 3 levels you can change my percentage. Small movements (inner zone) medium movements (middle zone) large movements (outer zone) By default they are splat 33%/34%/33% -if you want it less twitchy when trying to do subtle movements - then eg. Set Small 50% Med 25% Large%25. Now 50% of the sticks motion in one direction will be considered 'small movement input' giving you more play/input for small movements. *I use 50/25/25 Pro: input response is awesome Pro: buttons are very tactile/clicky Pro: bumpers are aeesome Con: bumpers are loud *click Con: the share and guide buttons are opposite locations compared to xbox controller = lots of accidental share presses. Con: start/menu buttons are up really high in face of controller. Con: 2 custom button map presets compared to 3 on Elite2 *app can save multiple. OVERALL I really like this controller. I love the buttons, the bumpers feel and sound like they'd last a lifetime. Custom stick sensitivity is sweet. I like the rear button placement as I only use two of them. If you want your headphones to go louder, jesus this pad will do it.. But the crazy mic send means you'll be that annoying person with loud noisy mic everyone mutes. (don't be that person) Theres some more info than just what's in the box. Hope this helps you with this expensive decision. I love mine now I'm used to it. Audio/mic was the most disappointing thing. Led me to another purchase (wireless headset)
As it turns out: the only testing I've seen of the *analog sticks themselves* show that this controller (or the Playstation version if you upgrade the sticks to the NXG versions) have the most accurate, most reliable sticks out of all controllers available. They're actually different. And yes, the Xbox Elite simply uses standard analog stick modules with better thumbsticks - but these are actually better.
I can confirm that bro, the sticks are so accurate its insane, no matter what direction I pull the stick it always returns to an almost exact 0 deadzone position and I've had it for like 5 months so far. And on top of that they have a lot of analog stick tension so its harder to over aim, it really doesn't get any better then that.
Until wireless becomes more responsive and reliable than wired, i will always be more than happy to vouch for the former. This thing looks great! Rip to my bank account.
The reason why they went with the wired option is probably cause it is ment als esports controller and u want the best of the best there, that means the least amount of input lag and also no batteries that could die in the middle of an important match
@@bspinnfade It’s almost as if the PS4 is the exception instead of the norm. Watch Rocket Science’s video about input lag and you’ll see literally every other platform is faster wired than wireless. But yes, he’s the one spewing nonsense compared to you fanboying over a controller on TH-cam lol.
I love playing Layers of Fear and his game pad made playing that game so much more real. Layers of Fear is not a shoot'em up game but a game where you need to go slow sometimes, to look behind doors and open desk drawers. After making some adjustments to the mini stick via the Thrustmaster software. I was able to adjust them to go slow for looking around and then fast to get out of trouble. Some might say, the controller is not wireless, so it is not worth it. But I like using wired trackballs and controllers because they have instant reaction time, and you don't have to worry about not playing, because of no batteries or your controller lost it's charge. Oh, and the customization of this controller is awesome. So many options with the swappable mini sticks & D pad. You can also get different color packages for this Game pad so when your friend gets one you will know which one is yours. I am using it in the typical Xbox configuration on a PC with Steam and the controller was easily recognized.
Nice review. I can't be the only one that prefers wired controllers. I prefer wired vs wireless for the simple fact that batteries have a life span. In my experience, after owning a controller for a long period of time, let's say 2 years, I would end up leaving the controller plugged in indefinitely. That is, if there's no stick drift. I'm liking this particular controller because it's wired and from the looks of it if there is stick drift, you can just purchase another stick to replace the one with the drift. What type of a warranty does this controller have? Does it cover stick drift? How long does it last before stick drift kicks in? How good is the durability?
These controllers are excellent. The moduler design is awesome and is beneficial if you get stick drift and they need replacing. For PC players this has better input latency than both the Series and Series Elite controllers which are limited by their polling rate, speaking of which on PC you actually overclock the polling rates to achieve even better latency
One thing to add is the hair triggers limit acceleration in driving games to 50%, an important note for those who play any driving game such as rocket league where every input is detrimental to your mechanical ability.
Everyone complains about the back button placement being in a bad spot especially for smaller hands. Can this controller not work with a back button attachment or have its back buttons modded as well?
IT IS ONLY CONTROLLER THAT SOLVES ANALOG LAYOUT PROBLEM FOR ME, I LIKE TO PLAY WITH PLAY STATION STYLE ANALOG LAYOUT IN GAMES SUCH AS ELDEN RING BECAUSE TO HAVE TO CONTINUESLY RUN WITH LEFT ANALOG STICK AND YOU HAVE TO PRESS DIRECTIONAL BUTTONS TO USE YOUR ITEMS AT SAME TIME , IN GAMES LIKE FORZA I LIKE USING XBOX LAYOUT. SO THRUSTMASTER ESAWP IS BEST CONTROLLER FOR ME.
Also try kontrol freaks tension rings. They saved my gameplay when I had to send my battle beaver custom controller In for bumper repair for a few months.
The only big downside of these ESwap controllers is how much work they require to prevent problems… and I’m still having random problems :( mine just randomly disconnects mid game, I’ve searched for countless hours for any sign of a fix and have tried for weeks of real time to fix it… no dice… would recommended a DualShock 4 or DualSense instead for PC, far more reliable and guaranteed consistency
I was gonna buy this, but they barely have any add-ons for the xbox one, I wanted the attachment with 2 extra buttons so I could make a fighting gamepad but that attachment is exclusive to the PlayStation one, I guess I'll just go get 2 separate controllers, this product has potential but the xbox version needs more attachments
The Xbox version only just came out. The Playstation version is over a year old. But I do not understand why we can't just swap out parts between them, at all - so you have a point.
I have this eSwap controller for Xbox and when I try to use the Razer Kaira Pro headset, the microphone doesn’t work when trying to play games. Not only can I not hear others, they can’t hear me. Anyone know how to troubleshoot this?
This controller but wireless. More custom sticks/notches for the stick etc. I want a controller i can play Melee to FPS games on, just swap the sticks and you'll be done. It's such an amazing idea with great potential, but lacks the creativity and support for multi console usage. This could have been the best controller ever to be released, but the lack of wireless features, customizable parts available, back botton triggers, different stick textures and notches really dampens the reason to buy one. Sure it would be nice to have one controller for 3D and 2D games to swap the D-pad and stick. But this controller is like $200 in most european countries. I can buy a brand new Playstation and Xbox controller for cheaper than that. So even tho this controller is smart and all, it costs outweigh it's CURRENT potential.
I Have a question regarding this keen Gamer can I move the Right analog to the left side and if I do will it still register as a right stick or as a Dpad I need to know for a niche reason And the second thing is can I use the spot on the right hand side where the right stick was supposed to go and have extra buttons that are not the Dpad. For example a mad cat'z street fighter controller style etc. where we have a row of three followed by a row of three. I need to know this so please respond XD.
I don't think you can get the same functionality of it through Xbox as you can PC, but the PC Thrustmapper app has a ton of features. I'm fairly positive you should be able to remap those buttons on PC, but not on Xbox.
it may be a program fault too, i must pres the buttons in the profile manager in vwird places to get the profile to react. like i dont press the meny, but i press around alle the menu to finally hit the atb. ita a nutty prog
I believe it is only for PC and Xbox. The older version (can't remember its name) you can use for PS. Edit: It's called the Eswap Pro Controller. The same name but without the X.
It's compatible with Xbox Series X, yes. :) Although I don't think it would work on the PlayStation, but there is a PlayStation version for those who want one.
A small one, fist the obvious, the button layout but the more significant difference are actually the analog sticks, the xbox version has their so called "next gen sticks" which are smoother and just better than the ps ones, besides that everything is the same, if you want to pull a cheeky one, you can grab the ps one and buy 1 next gen stick from their store, they are compatible and it saves you some money since in my country the price difference is around 80$
anyone can tell me whats the durability lile? I've had soo many expensive controller break for example stick drift and bumpers completely just stopped working on my elites 1 and 2
Got mine a few weeks ago, and I love it. Durability feels insane and it should def last a long time. And the thing I like about it is even if you get stick drift or something, you can easily just replace that singular part - such as the joystick if there is stick drift - instead of buying a whole knew controller so it's less of a risk
@@112beastlyy Plus they *should* be a bit better than regular analog sticks. Replacing 2 modules might cost you 40 bucks (a new controller when on sale), but they appear to be the most accurate, reliable sticks when tested against all other available pads. Saw that on the Rocket Science (competitive rocket league bro who tests controllers in-depth with measurements) video channel.
Have you had a Xbox elite 2 because what I found with that is that the left bumper stopped or was starting to stop working and had some sort of delay when I pressed it but does this controller do that over time if not I might get one
@@itslogs1486 yes my elite series bunpers are completely broke i use the back paddles as a replacement. Will never buy another pad from Microsoft again
Currently also researching this. Besides the compability (pro X = x box, pro version = ps4/5): Then the back trigger limit switches are not present in the playstation version (seen 5:30) Also the pro X version (x box) seems to have the higher quality thumb sticks shipped by default.
This controller better than junk Xbox elite series 2 controller and other Xbox controllers because thrustmaster eswap controller can be overclocked to 800hz which is really good unlike trash Xbox controllers because Xbox controllers are not overclockable when its comes to competitive gaming standard ps4 and ps5 controllers are the best because they can be overclocked to 1000hz means 1ms response time just like mouse
i just bought one of these a few days ago and for some reason when i press the profile buttons it does nothing it wont switch between 1 and 2 i have to go into the program and change my preset that i want to profile 1 i can alter profile 2 in the program and the light on the controller changes when doing that but as soon as i leave the program the controller changes to profile one and wont change i thought it might be broken buttons but the remap button inbetween the two profile buttons works perfectly fine does anyone have any ideas for me please
okay to be honest I'm not trying to s*** on this guy but he really pissed me off with this review okay all I needed to know was whether the face buttons ABX and y are mechanical keyboard like buttons he said that they were really clicky which I assume he means they're mechanical but he didn't say outright so now I have to do more research...
After checking the product website, it doesn't look as if even they specify whether or not they are actually mechanical or simply clicky-feeling. They do advertise that the controller buttons have a "clear-click feeling." And "gaming mouse level precision."

Would you suggest this over something like the elite series 2 or razer wolverine ultimate for fps
Yes
@@chocolateicecream3150 why
This controller better than junk Xbox elite series 2 controller and other Xbox controllers because thrustmaster eswap controller can be overclocked to 800hz which is really good unlike trash Xbox controllers because Xbox controllers are not overclockable when its comes to competitive gaming standard ps4 and ps5 controllers are the best because they can be overclocked to 1000hz means 1ms response time just like mouse
I've gone through 11 Elite S2's. Those things are fucking dogshit.
I'll have to pick this one up.
i just bought one of these a few days ago and for some reason when i press the profile buttons it does nothing it wont switch between 1 and 2 i have to go into the program and change my preset that i want to profile 1 i can alter profile 2 in the program and the light on the controller changes when doing that but as soon as i leave the program the controller changes to profile one and wont change i thought it might be broken buttons but the remap button inbetween the two profile buttons works perfectly fine does anyone have any ideas for me please
i love this shit if its true
wow that was many cons missed out..
okay to be honest I'm not trying to s*** on this guy but he really pissed me off with this review okay all I needed to know was whether the face buttons ABX and y are mechanical keyboard like buttons he said that they were really clicky which I assume he means they're mechanical but he didn't say outright so now I have to do more research...
After checking the product website, it doesn't look as if even they specify whether or not they are actually mechanical or simply clicky-feeling. They do advertise that the controller buttons have a "clear-click feeling." And "gaming mouse level precision."
this "paddles" are very weird
It is cheap shit sold as pro controller after 5 months had to repair both sticks and now L1 and R1 buttons is also not working properly
That's longer thant he average Xbox Elite controller has lasted it seems. Try and google some experiences with that one ;p
@@KindOldRaven After reapir is all fine but I am curious that for so long time they do not make this part easy for repairs and they surely know the problems. I play on PS to Xbox Elite is not for me :-). But thanks
FIRST!
Wired controllers are the thing of the past Dislike
